THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

MOTHER’S DAY ONCE A. YEAR IS MEANINGLESS

Mother’s Day! A day that gives thousands of thoughtless and inconsiderate sons and daughters an opportunity to ease their const cnees by piling up gifts and caresses on the woman they neglect most of the 364 other days of the year.

It is an outlet for sentiment. These sons and daughters arc the kind who weep copiously when the vaudeville singer warbles of mother and home —and go home to mother to work mother just as hard as ever for the money she needs but they want. To some, Mother's day is more than that: it is a day of testimonial, on which they declare the love they prove is sincere by thier actions on other days. Unless mother is made to feel she is appreciated every clay, Mother's day has no point. I have Just received a letter which Is pertinent In connection with Mother's day: Appreciated Now Dear Mis* I,ee: I want to say a word to the girls who write to you and want to know whether they should take me r mother'* advioe. Girls, can't you trust your mothers any more than that? Do you think your mother would advise you against .vour own good} . , Your mother is tin- best tnend you will ever have in this world. You will not realize what a friend you have in her unUl God takes her away from you. My mother has been dead for three years, and it seems sometimes as if I must see her and a?k her for advice, for I am afraid I wai like lots of other girls I did not realize until too late how mueh she means to me. So. girls, wake up. give your mothers a chance, and I am eure you will not regret it. MRS. E- A. G.

around there. Is there no way I can #top him} MISS M. M. It is natural for a man in love to want to protect the girl he loves from any unpleasantness. This man seems to have no such desire. Send the man away and tell him to come back only when he proves himself worthy, as he is not now.

Fiancee Mercenary Dear Miss Dee: I am a young man 23 years old. I had a good Job and was engaged to a wonderful girl. I lost my job a month ago and the girl broke the engagement right away and started going with fellows who had money and could show her a good time. Now I have another job. better than the one I had before, and she wants me to come ba-k. I love her. but I wonder If she v. ould do that way again. Should I go hack} SKIDOO. “For better, for worse" would mean little to a Kiri as mercenary as your former fiancee. So I advise you to let her continue to be your former fiancee, not to make her your wife. She will need a complete reformation of character to make a wife on whom her husbtnd can depend in bad weather as well as fair.

The Tangle

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO THE LITTLE MARQUISE, CARE OF THE SECRET DRAWER. CONTINUED As I read that dipping, little Marquise I could not help thinking of Alice and her pained, drawn, tearstained face that morning, when she came into the .shop. Then she was not suro that tills wedding which had been described as “the most brilliant ever given in Albany," would come off. Then she told me that sho did not know whether she was in love with Porter Breed or not. Then all sh did know was that he was her last chnce: that unless sho married him it locked as though starvation would stare her In the face. It was a very different girl that walked up the aisle of St.. John's. Life had become bright again. She had evidently reached the summit of her desire. I shall follow her married life with great interest, for you know, littie Marquise, I married Jack with a great overwhelming love such as Alice evidently had never known. I shall like to know if her marriage will he any more successful tha!n mine has been. I wonder if in her case freedom from the sordid cares of life, ait ambitious position In society, and like tastes with those of the man she has married, will make up for that irresistible unrest that most people call love. In the same society column of the Express someone wrote of my party thus: “Last evening occurred one of the most brilliant parties ever given In Albany. Mr. and Mrs. John Alden Piesccott, who are leaving lo reside permanently In Pittsburgh, took this way to say good-by to their many friends. “Mr. Prescott has been a resident of the city for many years and has been one of Its most popular as well as most successful business men. He brought his wife, the daughter of the late Joseph Graves Hamilton, to this city a bride, and she immediately took her place In the younger set.

"The comparatively recent death of Mr. Hamilton changed the whole business course of Mr. Prescott's life. The reading of the will made Mr. Prescottt the manager of the en. lire steel plant and the executor of his wife’s and mother-ln-law’s vast fort une. "All the city’s society turned out to bid this popular couple good-by, and the hotel where the party was g-.ven was filled with their numerous f. irnds. "The company was perhaps much more brilliant than It would have bten had not the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Porter Breed been solemnized that noon. The whole gay pageant filled the drawing rooms of the hotel with beauty and laughter. "This assemblage marked Mrs. Prescott's re-entry Into society from which she has been absent since the tragic death of her sister, Mrs. Karl Whitney, soon after here father's demise. “Albany will miss these twoyoum* people greatly.” (Copyright, 1625, NEA Service, Inc.) TOMORROW: This letter continued. mondayclublaeeting The Monday Club will meet at the D. A. R. chapter house, 824 N. Pennsylvania St. Mrs. E. J. Robinson will talk on "Formal Essays.” Mrs. Victor Hlntze will sing a group of Irish ballads, accompanied by Mrs. Walker Baylor.
